  • the positive electrode active material is cracked when discharged with a large current, and a new surface of the primary particles is exposed, and the positive electrode active material and the electrolysis on the new surface are exposed.
  • the side reaction with the liquid cannot be sufficiently suppressed. For this reason, when discharging with a large current is repeatedly performed, there is a problem that the battery capacity is reduced, the cycle characteristics are lowered, and the output characteristics are lowered.

If the value of x is 0.95 or less, the stability of the crystal structure is lowered, so that it is not sufficient to maintain the capacity during the passage of the cycle and to suppress the deterioration of the output characteristics. On the other hand, when the value of x is 1.2 or more, gas generation increases.
  • the reason why the value of y is regulated as described above is that when the value of y is 0.3 or less, the discharge capacity decreases. Further, if the value of y exceeds 0.9, the stability of the crystal structure is lowered, so that it is not sufficient to maintain the capacity during the cycle and to suppress the deterioration of the output characteristics.

Therefore, a stable structure may not be sufficiently formed on the primary particle surface of the lithium-containing transition metal oxide, and the effect of improving the cycle characteristics and the effect of suppressing the decrease in output characteristics may be insufficient. On the other hand, when the primary particle diameter exceeds 2 ⁇ m, the diffusion characteristic of lithium ions in the lithium-containing transition metal oxide becomes long during large current discharge, and thus the output characteristics deteriorate.

If the average particle size of the rare earth compound exceeds 100 nm, the particle size of the rare earth compound becomes too large, so that the number of particles of the rare earth compound decreases. For this reason, the probability that the rare earth compound adheres to the interface where the primary particles are in contact with each other and / or the vicinity of the interface decreases.

  • battery A has an increased number of cycles to reach the 70% capacity maintenance ratio and a smaller increase in resistance with the passage of cycles than batteries Z1 to Z3. Can be confirmed. Comparing the battery Z1 and the battery Z3 to which erbium oxyhydroxide is not attached, the battery Z1 containing zirconium has a slightly smaller increase in resistance after 150 cycles than the battery Z3 containing no zirconium. However, it is still insufficient. Moreover, it can be confirmed that the number of cycles until the capacity retention rate reaches 70% is extremely small in both batteries regardless of the presence or absence of zirconium.

For this reason, it is thought that it is because the particle
